My postman stops in once in a while to see what I am doing. One day he stopped and brought in a beat up Emerson 77646 corroded to the max. Wish I had taken before pictures. Of course it would not run. "Think you can do anything with this? My brother and I have been trying to get it to work but no luck. The blade won't turn and if you turn it on it just smokes. I can remember the day my dad brought it home when it was new. With no AC that was a big deal for us." I told him I would see what I could do about them mud dauber nest he had. A couple if weeks later, I work very slow, this is what he is picking up. I still have a couple of things to finish but it runs just as quiet as any Emerson. Hopefully he and his son will get another 60 years out of it.
